While I am still waiting for the required element of 7th Epsilon mission and the terrain rework for 5th Soviet one, I have decided to play Mental Omega beta bit more and find anything I could change/fix or something. I have successfully fixed some bugs and mistakes as well as upgraded the AI a bit (though it's still far from what I have been expecting from it). As this website lacks updates recently (except the so-called Demo version of MO ), I have decided to tell you about some changes done to what has already been introduced to you.

Chitzkoi is no longer available for Soviets as a hero unit. It is still available in game though, but it has became a secret weapon just like Volkov.

Transaction is new Soviet special ability, available with the Palace built. It provides extra 1000$ every three minutes.

Drilling Platform spawns ore around just like in v1.2 although now the method is automated and also used by AI.

Also, some cameos have undergone polish-ups and the versions on the website don't neccessary show the quality of ones ingame. I have updated those which harshly deviate from ones in the mod though.

More to come.

quite nice i like the drilling platform update.

when you say that Chitzkoi is now a secret weapon do you mean only be in missions or something else?

[Speeder]

Once or twice it will be available in Soviet campaign. In skirmish you'll get it when you do some movements concerned with spies and infiltration. Secret is secret.

Yay, Driller spawns ore again, it looked kinda boring with it sitting there doing nothing in all th other betas

Also like the Transaction idea, good work

[CreLuSioN]

i would of thought to get chitz and volkov, you need a timemachine.

but im guessing you need to spy all 3 labs? no problem hehe

[OmegaBolt]

Volkov should be Soviet spying Soviet. But good changes.

Nope, the Allies have turtle. Soviets have weakest of all defensive tactics and capabilities.

[Allied General]

u also don't realise then how effective free $1000 every 3 minutes is then ....

like the turtling/spam unit whoring begin ...

[Speeder]

If you want so much, I can add 2000, it's just one number.

[OmegaBolt]

Soviets already have Miners that get 1000 each time.

[Speeder]

Okay, 2000 then
